You have a couple of options:

1. The JS SDK approach - https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/israelo/2014/10/21/yammer-rest-api-for-dummies/

   2. The ADAL approach - https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/israelo/2016/07/05/yammer-apis-and-adal-tokens/

The first open will request users to login via a browser pop up, and the second option can utilise IWA, but there are some pre-conditions and limitations as it is still in preview. Details are in the blog.
